Jonathan Rosenberg, Esq.

Jonathan Rosenberg is a New York criminal defense lawyer and appellate advocate with offices in downtown Brooklyn and Midtown Manhattan. An associate of Brooklyn's very own Howard Greenberg Law Firm, Jonathan represents clients across all New York counties, in criminal matters ranging from misdemeanors to major felonies, from the time of arrest to the time of dismissal, negotiation, or trial. In addition to Jonathan’s defense practice, which works closely with Howard’s case schedule, Jonathan focuses his non-court-room efforts on perfecting appeals, drafting motions, and handling post-judgment matters across the State of New York.

When You're Up Against the Government…

In 2018, Jonathan solo chaired two jury trials to acquittal — one in Westchester, one in Manhattan — and argued two appeals before the Appellate Division — one before the First Department, one before the Second. If you’re looking for experience, results, and creativity, then call our office at (718) 715-4845.

We Believe in the Defense Team Model of Advocacy

Depending on the nature of your case, Jonathan works with 3 to 5 attorneys who bring anywhere from 35 to 55 years of combined courtroom experience to the table. As O.J. Simpson would tell you, a well-organized defense team is much more effective than an overworked solo attorney who outsources written motions to a document mill.

Which other lawyer has received a standing ovation from the jury at the end of the trial?

“Greenberg has produced an unusually high number of acquittals and dismissals in cases where such results were thought to be impossible, both in Federal and state courts. Some of Howard’s high-profile clients have included the infamous Butcher of Bensonhurst, Levi Aron, as well as U.S. rapper Bobby Shmurda.” (The Sun).

At first blush, I might rub people the wrong way... But my results speak volumes. There’s no higher calling, by the way, than what I do.

For people finding themselves in trouble, Greenberg offers three words of advice: "Better. Call. Howard."
